Sometimes when we restore the saved session state from disk, we would like to skip the current item (to prevent crash-loop if the app crashed because of loading the URL in current item). We can't just do bfList->back since that would make it possible to go forward and crash again if user swipes forward.

Seems like there isn't a good way to achieve this with the current API/SPI. Any suggestions?
